Baccalaureate is just a big word for a Christian service that honors graduating high school seniors. It is a way of getting the senior class together so that they can receive prayer and a blessing before they graduate and go out into the world.
The Romeo Baccalaureate Committee works hard to make this service not only something to bless our seniors, but an exciting service that they want to attend! With the help of past seniors and the youth pastors/leaders on our committee, we organize the service with the 2019 senior in mind. That means:
**Live music from a contemporary Christian band
**Videos featuring our seniors
**A message from this year's speaker, Romeo's own Roger Bennett!
**Members of the senior class are involved in the service.
**A $500 Scholarship given to a senior who attends the service
**A reception with baked goods, cake, punch…all the seniors (and their guests) can eat!
** A drawing where seniors can win gas cards or gifts/gift certificates from local businesses and restaurants. Seniors will also have a chance to win one of the $250 Visa Gift Cards donated by the Romeo Kiwanis and the baccalaureate committee.

While we strive to make baccalaureate fun, exciting, and meaningful for our seniors, that’s not the main reason that the Romeo Baccalaureate Committee organizes a baccalaureate service. The biggest reason is this—our seniors will face some overwhelming decisions and tough choices after they graduate.
We want to make sure they receive lots of prayer. We want to make sure they are blessed. We want to give them an opportunity to hear a message from a godly speaker that will help our graduates make good decisions in their future.
That's why we do it!
